Project overview

Replacing a failure-prone external sliding door with a robust automatic swing door, with all electronics moved inside.

A healthcare client needed to replace an ageing, externally mounted sliding door that kept breaking down because of water ingress and electrical faults. The goal was a modern, reliable, low-maintenance entrance that ended those problems for good.

We specified, supplied and installed a robust automatic swing door system designed for long-term performance, integrating cleanly with the existing structure.

What we delivered

  • High-reliability swing door operator for heavy daily use
  • Replaces a sliding system vulnerable to water ingress
  • All controls and electronics installed internally
  • Custom polyester powder-coated angle plates for a clean external finish
  • Full internal making good, including plastering and painting
  • Improved accessibility and smooth, controlled operation
  • Fully tested and commissioned, with safety features demonstrated

The challenge

Changing door type left a void inside where the old sliding framework had been. We brought in a team to plaster and paint the area for a seamless finish, and used custom angle plates outside for a uniform appearance.

The outcome

With the electronics now protected inside the building, the historic weather-related failures have been designed out, and staff have a dependable, accessible entrance.
